15 weeks!

 So here we are at 15 weeks. Nothing particularly new or exciting to report right now. I'm still waiting on my belly to look more pregnant and less "fat"! One fun thing though is that we have decided to have a gender reveal party for our families, so I have started coming up with ideas for that. I have also found a really cute maternity shirt that I will wear for the party. It will be fun to see what our family thinks we are having, and who ends up being correct! And then we can really start to buy things for the baby, which will be SO much fun!

How far along? 15 weeks
Maternity clothes? Still the same as last week, although I am learning how hard it is to find maternity clothing when you aren't a tiny, petite woman....particularly when you have a gigantic chest because so many of the tops are empire waists/peasant tops, which don't work for those of us with large chests. I see a lot of online guessing...I mean shopping, in my future
Stretch marks? Still good so far....let's keep it that way!
Sleep: Still have quite frequent pee-breaks through out the night, and some trouble getting comfortable. I am still sleeping on my stomach fairly often...which I will do as long as I can!
Best moment this week: Shopping with my Mom and realizing my feet didn't swell hardly at all!
Have you told family and friends: Oh yes, and everyone is helpful and excited :o)
Miss Anything?  Still missing a good, cold deli sandwich. And I miss coffee....it's a disappointment that I thought I would be fine to drink it since it's okay in moderation, but unfortunately I have an aversion to it.
Movement: Still too soon. :o(
Food cravings: I had a craving for fried chicken and cake the other night...that was an interesting one. Sadly, the fried chicken didn't live up to my expectations :o/
Anything making you queasy or sick: When I'm hungry I still feel quesy, also when I am super tired, and gross smells still do it.
Have you started to show yet: Slowly getting there...I have a little bit of a belly now, but I'm looking forward to it getting bigger so I will finally look pregnant, not just fat.
Gender prediction: Not sure
Labor Signs: No
Belly Button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On, but they are getting tighter!
Happy or Moody most of the time: I'd say lately I've been pretty moody....but I think that has a lot to do with the fact that I have been incredibly busy, and therefore more tired.
Looking forward to: Feeling the baby move for the first time, and finding out the gender!! Seems like those are taking forever to get here! I'm also looking forward to our appointment on the 27th, because we will get to hear the heartbeat and make sure baby is still doing well.
